CPOT HAS BEEN POSTPONED. All applications received for 2017-18 are still on file and considered active. Please call 503-823-9333 or email cannabis@portlandoregon.gov for more details!

The Cannabis Policy Oversight Team (formerly the Cannabis Policy Task Force) informs the development of the Cannabis Program and Portland's cannabis policies by engaging community and industry stakeholders with different skillsets, perspectives, and priorities.

CPOT members are asked to provide input and offer recommendations on a variety of issues including the potential creation of social consumption environments for marijuana; how to reduce marijuana access to youth; and how to address equity in practice in the Portland cannabis business community, among other issues. These recommendations inform Portland City Council as it continues to integrate the emerging marijuana industry into the Portland landscape.
